Admittedly, I don't have a lot of experience because of where I live, or any science training, but I have a gut feeling Omicron isn't going to be under control for a few months,

The R_eff on the Hunter Valley cluster here (a postive person went nightclubbing while waiting for a result) was 300+.

I think the R_eff for Sydney, where they are letting Jesus take the wheel and trusting in personal responsibility, was 16 yesterday. Cases are doubling every three days. Is Rob Ford (or Doug?) available. We might need better leadership!
